SCBWI Book Blast

Posted by, Greg R. Fishbone on October 10, 2016

October 10th marks the opening of Book Blast season at the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators–SCBWI for short, or Skib-whee for even shorter. Hundreds of new 2016 books are on virtual display for the next six weeks, just in time for holiday season shopping for all the readers in your life.

Drop by the page, leave a message on the guestbook, and be sure to click the heart icon to “like” the blast and hear a special audio effect. And while you’re there, I’ve placed a “preview” button on the page that will give you advance access to the first two chapters of The Amorphous Assassin before the book goes on sale in November.

Then check out some other great children’s authors and illustrators having a blast this season:

Lin Oliver is cool and funny in person and also in her books! She’s having a blast with Danger! Tiger Crossing, the first book in a new series that literally throws kids into some of the greatest paintings in art history, and she’s having another blast with co-author Henry “Ayyyyyyy!” Winkler with The Soggy Foggy Campout, Book #8 in the Here’s Hank series.
